"Are all the arrangements made at the new school?"
"Yes, I’m going to report there the day after tomorrow."
"Take good care of yourself when you’re out there alone, so the family won’t worry. I’ll visit you whenever I have time."
Gu Li didn’t know what had happened that made Yaoyao decide to leave so suddenly.
Although reluctant, it might also be a good thing that Yaoyao was leaving.
But Gu Li knew that Gu Yao’s departure definitely involved Shangguan Yu and Gu Sheng.
He just hoped her departure could help everyone put the past behind and stop obsessing.
"Did you buy everything you need?"
"Yes, I bought them."
"It’s your first time traveling alone, and I’m really a bit worried. Maybe I should take you to the United Kingdom myself."
"No need, I’m not a child anymore." Gu Yao said with a smile, which made her feel a lot better.
She wondered why, although they were real siblings, her second brother’s character was so different from theirs.
"Then you must call me right after you land tomorrow to let me know you’re safe."
Gu Li also knew that Gu Yao was feeling upset, so he chatted with her for a while, cheered her up, and then got ready to let Gu Yao go to rest.
Suddenly, Gu Yao asked, "Big brother, do you have someone you like?" Dıscover more novels at novel•fire.net
Gu Li’s mind briefly flashed with Jun Wuchen’s worldly and gentle face, his lips curved into a smile, and even his eyes twinkled with mirth.
Gu Yao was a bit surprised to see Gu Li’s smile.
After all, her big brother had never spoken of it.
"Why do you ask all of a sudden?" Gu Li counter-questioned.
"Nothing, I just wanted to know what kind of wonderful girl could make big brother fall in love."
Gu Li chuckled, "He is indeed very awesome, exceptionally awesome."
"Who is she?" Gu Yao asked curiously.
"I’d rather not tell you right now, because, me and him, it’s not quite possible." Gu Li said with a wry smile.
"Impossible, big brother, you’re so outstanding. Which girl wouldn’t like you?"
"I’m not as confident as you say."
"Does that girl know about your feelings?"
Gu Li shook his head, "I don’t want to make him feel awkward."
"You haven’t even told him, how can you say it’s making him feel awkward? Maybe he likes you too."
"You said ’maybe’, I just don’t have the courage to risk not even being able to be friends afterward to tell him."
"If you like someone, you should express it. Maybe he really likes you too, then you would be missing out."
"Yaoyao, loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean you have to be together. Just knowing that he’s happy, does it really matter whether we’re together or not?"
"But if you see him with someone else, are you truly not troubled, not sad?" In a world of billions, to meet someone you love is incredibly hard and lucky. Why settle for friendship when you don’t lack friends like him?"
Gu Yao became somewhat emotional, unsure whether she was upset on behalf of Gu Li or herself.
This speech, she wasn’t even sure if she was speaking about Gu Li or herself.
"..." Seeing that Gu Li was silently looking at her, Gu Yao knew she had said something wrong.
She quickly adjusted her emotions and said, "I’m sorry, big brother, I shouldn’t have said these things, I shouldn’t meddle in your love life, I..."
Gu Li raised his hand and gently ruffled Gu Yao’s head, smiling as he said, "Seeing him with someone else, of course I’d be heartbroken
